A computer having a heat sink structure incorporated therein provides efficient heat dissipation for heat generating components within the computer. In a preferred embodiment, a computer has a chassis, a circuit board with a heat generating device mounted thereon, and a structural member with a heat pipe disposed thereon. The heat pipe transfers heat from the heat generating device to a heat dissipating portion of the structural member. The structural member strengthens the chassis and provides convective transfer of the heat to the environment.
